He also supports people exploring relationship struggles, intimacy concerns, and family of origin issues. His background includes eight years of clinical practice and licensure as an LMFT in California and New Hampshire.
Jared uses tools like journaling, guided meditations, mindfulness exercises, and role-play when they fit the situation.

How Jared's Approaches Work Online
Attachment-based work focuses on how early connections shape current relationships and emotional responses. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in attachments and try different ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying.Client-centered therapy centers the person's experience and priorities. The therapist follows what matters most to the client, listens without judgement, and offers reflections that help people clarify what they want to change or keep. This approach is useful for people seeking validation, clarity, and support in decision-making.
Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Online CBT sessions often include homework like journaling or tracking thoughts to support progress between meetings.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jared will work with each person to identify goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That means the first few sessions often focus on finding a good fit together.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper work, phone sessions can fit into a break or require less bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging can support shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection. These options make it easier to use therapy regularly and keep momentum toward personal goals.
